ONM: Okami is one of the best games on the Wii but it was a flop when it was originally released on PlayStation 2. With Okamiden just a few months away, Capcom producer Motohide Eshiro has told Official Nintendo Magazine why such a critically acclaimed game didn't do the business.
There are more franchises that cater to particular people than ever in the online melting pot. But there are plenty of sequels and spin-offs that don’t even start, uh, cooking in that melting pot.

Shadow of the Colossus, Okami, and Silent Hill 2 are some examples of games that still offer a mighty good time in 2024 if you pick them up today.

A new Okami Shiranui Nendoroid has moved closer to the production phase. Max Factory has confirmed a June 2022 launch and opened pre-orders.
Hasn't the same sort of mistake been made again with the 3DS launch?
Do Capcom hate the franchise that much?
EPIC Micky launched on the wrong console
There is something wrong with this world, but we all have to deal with it. People are just slow.
Is there a single person working on Okamiden who worked on Okami? I know Clover shut down and the heads built Platinum Games.
Okamiden looks to me like a Devil May Cry 2. An attempted Capcom cash-in on the original's success (in this case critical more than financial success) without the original creator having any involvement. Conveniently, they'd be screwing with the works of the same guy as well.
okamiden broke 100k so why are they complaining and its very much critically acclaimed in its own right
